SYDNEY: The Australian state of Queensland has banned the testing of drugs for recreational use, sparking warnings from health providers on Friday (Sep 19) that the move could put lives at risk.
Queensland ranks third-highest in Australia for drug use, the latest government data show, with around one in five people in the state reporting they had used in the past twelve months.
Late on Thursday, the government of the northeastern state said it would ban funding for testing which checks the chemical purity of drugs for users to see if they have been laced with other harmful substances.
The stateās health minister Tim Nicholls said the government had a āzero-tolerance approach to illicit drugsā.
āThere is no safe way to take drugs,ā he said. āDrug checking services send the wrong message to Queenslanders.ā
Cameron Francis, chief executive of non-profit The Loop Australia, a testing service that operated in Queensland, told AFP he was ādisappointed and saddenedā by the decision.
āWithout a service like pill testing, we have no idea what is circulating until it is too late,ā he told AFP.
The Loop had run a government-funded year-long trial in the state and tested 1,200 drugs, he said.
Of those samples, one in seven drugs were disposed of after being tested, while one in three people were referred to other health services, Francis explained.
One in five people who participated said they would reduce their drug use in the future.
Australiaās drug market is becoming more dangerous with an increase of synthetic opioid drugs such as fentanyl, he warned.
